Nothing In Particular
#9061 Re: Nothing In Particular
I won't be racing it thats for sure...
When I had a quick ride on it the instructions where to slip the clutch a lot I forgot after a couple of miles .. I stalled it.. then could not start it, so pushed it back the last 1/2 mile .
We'd just had a 20 mile ride.. me on a Kawaski kr1s and him on the Goldie
There was not much in it really; but I was always in front.. thats another bike I wish I still had...
I've nearly got the garage a bit more organised so I can squeeze yet another bike in...

The tube manual is quite like a telephone book. The number of it perfect. It is useful to make it possible to speak with a girl. But we can't see her beautiful face from the telephone number

Got back last evening, from a weekend in London, where we took in "Motown - The Musical" at the Shaftesbury Theatre" on Saturday night. It was organised in secret by Melanie and two of our friends, for my 60th, which is at the end of this month. The fact that I have very little money left didn't seem to bother the missus. She'd been squirrelling away for 12 months, so the buggers had been planning this a long time.
Travelled first class there and back on the train, stayed for one night at the Hotel Montague on the Gardens, near the British Museum. Spent the whole weekend, eating boozing and theatering.
Bought myself a couple of Jan Lundgren LPs from Ray's Jazz Shop in Foyles, visited the Science Museum and The British Museum.
Thoroughly enjoyed it. The missus is not a bad old soak really.

That's nice Steve, good to have a treat like that ocasionally.
I turned 60 last Spetember (it didn't feel any different) and had a good family get together - it's not often we all sit together around a table nowadays...

Being fair, that's not a cheap amp to build. Depending on what was used, might be worth it just for the iron...

Messing about with RPi3 full desktop. Seems to work really well, posting this using it now. Libre Office inbuilt and I've just installed Thunderbird icedove for email. This has come on a long way since I last used it! Neat!

It's good! For normal office functions, word, excel and internet browsing I can't fault it. Even streaming BBC via iPlayer is fine, I'm impressed!
Just played about with overclocking and that works as well, a little bit more oomph....
